| Microbes are microscopic organisms that can thrive in seemingly inhospitable environments and are sometimes referred to as extremophiles. |
|
| Even right here on Earth, new categories of organisms, collectively called extremophiles, thrive in conditions inimical to human beings. |
|
| Enzymes produced by extremophiles are also highly exploitable in the biocatalytic industry. |
|
| Studying extremophiles such as halophiles on Earth may provide insights helpful in our search for life elsewhere in the universe. |
|
| Specialized microorganisms called extremophiles thrive in nuclear waste, volcanic vents, boiling geothermal geysers and even deep inside rocks. |
|
| Ongoing discoveries of extremophiles on Earth continue to inform all of us of how much there is to learn about life. |
|
| On 7 February 2008, a NASA team embarked on a mission to Lake Untersee, searching for extremophiles in its highly alkaline waters. |
|
| The applications of extremophiles and their products, extremolytes, with their possible implications for human use are also discussed broadly. |
|
| In 2012 one group of my students had this great project where they were specifically going out to make artificial extremophiles. |
|
| Although there are terrestrial organisms called extremophiles that can survive under those kinds of conditions, they would be toxic to most life. |
|
| For example, extremophiles are organisms that exist in high temperatures, high acidity, extreme cold, extreme pressure and extreme salt and so on. |
|
| Toomey explains the latest findings on extremophiles and organisms even more extreme, such as organisms based on other elements instead of carbon. |
|
| Extremophiles, including piezophiles, which thrive in high pressures, may also live there. |
|
| Extremophiles living in very hot temperatures like those in hot springs are called thermophiles. |
|
| Extremophiles, tiny bacteria, have been found to thrive in these wates, using mechanism to survive in these conditions. |
